EAT THIS BREAD

[@66gardener]

Few communion songs emit the deep emotion this wonderful hymn brings forth. We have a large and talented choir and when we sing this, the sound has a wonderful reverberation throughout our rather massive church. Our choir will be singing this once again at Sunday Mass, consequently this lovely rendition is a great reference for my home practice sessions.

[@samjanssen2429]

Hey I’ve heard this song many times rose from st Jospeh in benld and ss Simon and Jude church ⛪️ plays this song 🎶

[@emerveille_]

Eat this Bread, drink this Cup. Come to Me and never be hungry. Eat this Bread, drink this Cup. Trust in Me and you will not thirst. I am the Bread of Life, the true Bread sent from the Father. Your ancestors ate manna in the desert, but this is the Bread come down from heaven. Eat My flesh and drink My blood and I will raise you up on the last day. Anyone who eats this Bread will live forever. If you believe and eat this bread, you will have eternal life.

Thanks

I don't think this belongs to any church in particular. As a Lutheran, the first time Pastor sang this, I was so touched. Beautiful for all Christians.

Which church are you attending

[@Apriluser]

Jonathan The United Methodists, Christian Missionary Alliance, Anglicans, and many other faith communities have some of the Taize song in their hymnals. These songs belong to the Church Universal, the Body of Christ. Alleluia!

[@tatubert8210]

I am Roman Catholic & this was sung at our church regularly !! I believe that all GOD's children who love the LORD should be able to sing HIS Praises no matter what church you go to!! GOD is for us all & so is HIS Music!! GOD Bless ALL!!

[@GudielMorales-cy4cl]

I attend St.Luke church and they sang this song a few times.

[@chrisblum2153]

This song... so many memories of comfort and bliss after communion at Calvary Episcopal Church in Santa Cruz. The chant was the best part of the service. The whole congregation singing quietly as one. I have not seen or felt that sense of love and peace in a group of people since. Admitted it was fleeting, but it did exist. I still get goosebumps listening to it again.

[@TylerLarew]

What a beautiful hymn! Makes me proud to be Catholic! "So Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you." John 6:53

[@josparkes1]

Very well said, I feel exactly the same, and taking Communion is the most wonderful thing on earth !

[@Jonathan-qs4de]

+Tyler Larew I don't mean to be rude, but it's not a Catholic hymn. It a Taizé chant. If you like this, then you should search Taizé on KZbin, and see what other beautiful songs you'll find from this Ecumenical Community. :)

[@FranklinPUroda]

+Jonathan Blanton From all I've read about its composer, Jacques Berthier, it appears that he was a Roman Catholic writing songs for the Taize community.

[@Jonathan-qs4de]

+Franklin P. Uroda More than half of the songs in the chantbook were written by Berthier. The monastery itself is comprised of both catholic and Protestant monks. It's an "ecumenical community." The reason for my comment is an aim for Christian unity, like the message behind the music. People in the Deutsche Evangelische Kirche have Taizé songs in their hymnbook as well.

[@williamripley3192]

Beautiful melody with all parts coming through, Its meaning is so profound.This is truly at the heart of Catholic belief.The Gospel of John is so beautiful.I wonder at times why the Church did not include include it as one of the Church Years,A,B,C.

[@onyinyejohn-obute9783]

This is breath taking....i love this.

[@xiolaamapola3180]

Thanks Be To God and Bless us Most Holy Mother 🌹

[@josparkes1]

The Cup of life from Jesus Christ from His body and blood, that He left us all so we will not die, but rise again on the last day

[@josparkes1]

So beautiful, love this, simply lovely and sacred.

[@williamripley3192]

Beautiful hymn.New to me but learning the cantor parts.

[@gloccry2184]

William Ripley It's easy, just wave the stick up and down ;)

[@jamdude86]

I heard this hymn at Mass yesterday!

[@cee-stringschristiana9204]

Nice one.

[@tohrasup]

Played at the end of Mass today, beautiful

[@churchorganfan]

the bus company I work for calls this the official Bus Monitor's song because a bunch of our monitors are 60 and older and alot of them are catholic and they sometimes sing this at meetings.

[@1Immortalmortal]

Beautiful version.

[@fireside57]

Full of Love.

[@ameliarobitaille7938]

This song is for you Bob barker in November 22 1999

[@LisbethSalander0430]

We are doing this on Sunday.... :). Can't wait.

[@meganmcgowan5798]

We're singing it THIS Sunday (1/31/2021). I'm the Cantor for that Mass. 🙂

[@johnnym8028]

Just beautiful, love it

[@tohrasup]

Fantastic hymn

[@joeknopick31]

We have song this during the Eucharist. Lutheran Service Book Hymn #638.

[@jamesflinchbaugh9431]

Why consubstantiation and not transsubstantiation, for Jesus said this is My Body, this is My Blood. Do this in remembrance of Me. And He is the bread from Heaven (John 6:51-53) He was born in Bethlehem, which literally means "house of bread".

[@Apriluser]

James Flinchbaugh Christ also said the he is the “door”, the “way”, etc. Is he using actual terms or metaphors? That’s the age old question.

[@__-ip5wd]

Eat this bread; drink this cup. Come to me and never be hungry. Eat this bread; drink this cup. Trust in me and you will not thirst.

[@gamergirl3377]

Im singing this for my Confirmation so this helped me because I wasn't to sure about some of the verses

[@marykatemorse5981]

This is not a Catholic hymn but from the Taize Community in France which is mixed Protestant-Catholic. The song is for all people.

[@Apriluser]

[@bensdadfrank]

What kills in this rendition is the strong male bass vocal. I have some things wrong that kind of prohibit hitting tenor. However I’ve been a career bassist in a Catholic Church. I love this piece of music. The bass line during the chorus is fun as well. Very well done.

[@oparajilawkel8653]

Soul moving

[@nneomanjoku3110]

The best..... Perfecto

[@gregmail23]

Technically, the Taize community is a Christian community that includes Catholics and non-Catholics alike. But you're right .. this song is VERY Eucharistic!

[@lizzapaolia959]

Beautiful 😍

[@charmainemarieiormetti8812]

so beautiful!!!

[@lukescalise7795]

This is a true gamer song

[@jedjethro]

When we say "Cup" there is much more implied than just a "cup" as an object. It is more than correct!

[@jedjethro]

@ bhzerobeat22 when we say "Cup" there is much more implied than just a "cup" as an object. It is more than correct!

[@josparkes1]

Re BH remark - Not being grammatically correct to 'drink this cup', -- these words are so full of meaning it eclipses this trivial minor thing, and encompasses, a wealth of sacredness, that is brilliantly beautiful in its entirety !

[@FranklinPUroda]

+josparkes1 I drink a cup of coffee once or twice a day. Never heard an English prof or grammatical martinet remark on the incorrect usage. The Roman Catholic "eat from this bread" during Mass is awkward. It's a slavish translation of the Latin "ex eo," which in common English should be "eat it."

[@macvuraegh]

+josparkes1 The prayer has changed, it used to be, "Take this, all of you and eat it. This is my body which will be given up for you." Now it is "Eat of it," which doesn't sound as good to me, but I'm old school, remembering the Latin Mass from before Vatican II.

[@hummingbirdvideophoto]

hi there My GodParent Monica likes It Its called Eat ths Bread from Annierose

[@dalesalver98]

[@swdoran7488]

[@celticlegend8354]

kill me.

[@ChiRhoLabarum]

allah akkbar

[@jamesflinchbaugh9431]

Allah is not God.

[@bellaxrich]

James Flinchbaugh Allah is the Arabic word for God used in many countries by Christians. Even Catholics in Afghanistan, Catholics in some northern parts of Africa.

[@bhzerobeat22]

it is not gramatically correct to say "drink this cup"

[@OneHandedClapper]

Brian Hutchison Sir, you may drink this cup of coffee I've served for you.

[@tatubert8210]

I do believe it was JESUS who spoke these words at the Last Supper!!

[@rockyroad201012]

Calling the Holy Body and Blood of Christ, "Bread" is heretical

[@aneletalu6961]

Read Mathew 26:26

[@tatubert8210]

At the Last Supper JESUS turned to HIS disciples & passed the bread saying .. "Take this bread & eat it .. this is My Body which will be given up for you!! When supper was ended JESUS took the cup & passed it saying .. "Drink this cup .. for this is My Blood .. the Blood of the new & eternal Covenant .. it will be shed for All so that sins may be forgiven .. Do this in Remembrance of ME"!!
